In the Ring

Double TT Desert Peaa

(Penmarric Killarney x Bolgamy Verity)

Peaa was purchased from LJS Riding Ponies and was the perfect mount for Kate’s big move from the pony ring into the adult world of galloways.

Kate and Peaa had great success at Royal Show and Horse of the Year events.  Kate’s university studies saw us sell Peaa to  Carmen Vakis in Western Australia.

Peaa and Carmen continue to win championships in the west.

Sundial of Beckworth

(Royal Command of Beckworth x Summer Sun of Beckworth)

Sundial of Beckworth,  Stable name “Teddy”, was gratefully sourced for us by Greg Gerry of Whitmere Stud.   Whitmere owning his half sister (by Royal Command of Beckworth) the multi champion mare Royal Minnette of Beckworth Wins included EFA National Small Pony, Champion Pony Hack Brisbane & Toowoomba Royals, and Twice Champion Ridden Riding Pony Brisbane Royal.

Kate and “Teddy” won the Newcomer POTY at the Northern NSW Hack Championships and the following day was sashed Runner Up Small Pony of the Year.  Teddy won the Brisbane Royal Best Riding Pony  Gelding Exhibit, shown in-hand by Darren Telford of Whitmere Stud and won Novice Pony Hack.

Kate and “Teddy” won numerous championships in-hand and under saddle on the agricultural show circuit and Riding Pony shows.   Kate outgrew her 12.2hh gelding and he was sold to a New Zealand  family who were keen on dressage .

Children grow up and ponies stay the same size so Teddy has again moved.  We have heard that he is  starring in dressage rings in Florida, USA.

Owendale Tell-Tale

(Sir Percy of Paxhall (Imp) x Tallyrand Polly of Spring)

Owendale Tell-Tale, known as “Dobber” was purchased from Raymond Butler, (Karlana Stud), and proved to be the ideal first show pony for Kate.

This combination went on to win turnout at their first Royal together and pick up a very credible third in the open pony class.

Kate and Dobber went on to collect many championships on the show circuit.
